SKU: CHILACSHZ22
Sourced from several vineyards from three sub regions of McLaren Vale (Seaview, Blewitt Springs and Clarendon), resulting in complexity in blending. Each parcel was harvested and fermented separately. Crushed and fermented on skins for 7-10 days, with some parcels containing some whole bunches. A milder vintage produces smaller than average crops, with more concentrated fruit. A long and dry ripening season prevailed producing wines with excellent varietal character that are well balanced.

”A sumptuous offering, the immensely complex bouquet shows dark fruit richness, vanillin oak, cake spice and dark chocolate aromas, followed by a powerfully concentrated palate that's both substantial and harmonious. Wonderfully composed and proportioned with a sustained, seamless finish.”
